Polka Restaurant -- Eagle Rock

Just returned from lunch at Polka. What a find! This place was in my restaurant database after reading a review in 1995 by Jonathan Gold.

I was browsing my computer for a place to try because we were going to be in the area and just took a chance.

This place is in a small strip mall and serves lunch on Saturdays. I had the best breaded pork loin I think I have ever had. Perfectly crisp on the outside, yet wonderfully moist and tender on the inside.

They start you with a lovely soup based on a lot of carrots and a bit of beef. A salad is also included. All of this for the embarassingly low price of $8.99. And this was from the most expensive portion of the menu. My wife had the stuffed cabbage, which was also excellent.

Our beautiful Easter centerpiece bread offers a healthier take on the classic egg- and butter-enriched bread. It’s made completely with white whole-wheat flour and less added sugar (in this case, honey) than many traditional recipes.

A super hot pan, preheated under the broiler, will help to brown the underside of the steak while the broiler chars the top and cooks the meat through. The broccoli stems will become crisp-tender while the florets get deliciously frizzled.
